Simplify (use only positive exponents) : (3y^10)(2y^2)/8y^5

1 answer:

5 0

When multiplying variables with exponents, all you have to do is to add the exponents and that’s the ‘product.’

So;

(3y^10)(2y^2) is equal to (3)(2)(y^10+2).

6y^12/8y^5

When dividing exponents, you do the opposite and subtract the exponents. And you divide the whole number by half.

6y^12/8y^5 = 3y^7/4

Answer:

x^2 | y^25 |√187x

Step-by-step explanation:

First you simplify the equation then you factor 184 into its prime factors which is 184 = 23 • 23

To simplify a square root, we extract factors which are squares, i.e., factors that are raised to an even exponent. Factors which will be extracted are: 4 = 22 Factors which will remain inside the root are: 46 = 2 • 23 To complete this part of the simplification we take the square root of the factors which are to be extracted. We do this by dividing their exponents by 2: 2 = 2 At the end of this step the partly simplified SQRT looks like this: 2 • sqrt (46x5y50) Rules for simplifing variables which may be raised to a power: (1) variables with no exponent stay inside the radical (2) variables raised to power 1 or (-1) stay inside the radical (3) variables raised to an even exponent: Half the exponent taken out, nothing remains inside the radical. examples: (3.1) sqrt(x8)=x4 (3.2) sqrt(x-6)=x-3 (4) variables raised to an odd exponent which is >2 or <(-2) , examples: (4.1) sqrt(x5)=x2•sqrt(x) (4.2) sqrt(x-7)=x-3•sqrt(x-1) Applying these rules to our case we find out that SQRT(x5y50) = x2y25 • SQRT(x) sqrt (184x5y50) = 2 x2y25 • sqrt(46x)
